My wife is 5'8 with a (at most) 31.5" inseam. Her bike, a large Marin Bobcat trail which I got for her birthday a long time ago is, I believe too large (my mistake). The frame is marked as 20.5" but the top of the seat tube is closer to 24". The standover height is about 33.5". In shoes she says she can standover it just fine but I can see the top tube is very much in contact. However she says its fine and has had some nice rides on it.
She will be pulling one of our children in a trailer. I feel like this is all a huge accident waiting to happen and that she isnt taking me seriously about it.
Does she need a new bike/frame? Am I overeacting? Any input from ladies ridding oversized bikes would be good.
Thanks.
Ben
